    and now... The Puck... Cheap Parts and Easy

    Is there anyone here that has made the puck cruiser that would be willing to type up a semi-detailed post regarding the pump bottle setup. I'm just wondering what size brass tubing was used, where it's from, and how you connected it to the pump bottle. Also, any tips on finding the clear...

    DIY Drip System: Think, "The Dipper"

    Assuming you're using this mod with the downtube inside the bottle (if not, this won't work), the suck and draw method can be done easily by just poking a hole or two in the bottle on the tapered part leading up to the neck (with a very small needle or pin). The liquid won't run out of the...

    My home made VV bottom feeder with built in VM

    Hey, Bert, looks good! What are the measurements of this box? I take it that gray knob is hooked up to the voltage adjustment screw? How did you do that? Also, how is the top cover being held on, magnets?

    vv vs. bottom feeder

    OP, why not make your own? Take a look at the one I made, based on this vv idea. I figure mine cost me about $25 to make, including batteries. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/battery-mods/170010-v-v-top-fed-mod-3x2x1-enclosure-using-lm2596-adjustable-regulator.html...

    Need help with VV box mod

    You should take a look at these mods: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/battery-mods/121826-very-easy-vv-mod-w-switching-regulator.html No need to build your own adjustable regulator. Also, take a look at the mod I just put together which meets your criteria...

    V.V. Top-Fed Mod in a 3x2x1 Enclosure Using LM2596 Adjustable Regulator

    So I was able to get it down to 2 and probably below but I didn't test it past that, and it seemed to max out at 7. edit: Hope that helps!

    V.V. Top-Fed Mod in a 3x2x1 Enclosure Using LM2596 Adjustable Regulator

    Thanks! and the Phidias is a bottom feeder, LOL. Could always try to squeeze a terminator in there, though :) To be honest, I'm not sure regarding the voltages. I think the input voltage just needs to be 1 or 2 volts higher than the desired output, and I'm not sure how low it goes, but I...

    V.V. Top-Fed Mod in a 3x2x1 Enclosure Using LM2596 Adjustable Regulator

    once again, no worries! I actually found the original idea here: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/battery-mods/121826-very-easy-vv-mod-w-switching-regulator.html and then became determined to squeeze it into a 3x2x1 and add a juicer! I actually really like this thing. I got a Phidias...

    V.V. Top-Fed Mod in a 3x2x1 Enclosure Using LM2596 Adjustable Regulator

    No worries! One more question, what do you mean by "in application output"?

    V.V. Top-Fed Mod in a 3x2x1 Enclosure Using LM2596 Adjustable Regulator

    The pot is on the bottom of the box if it is standing up (same position as the blue rectangle at the bottom of the first picture). There is no thumbwheel, just the adjustment screw with a little hole opening for it. The voltage range is 1.25v to 30v (full set of specs can be found here: LM2596...

    V.V. Top-Fed Mod in a 3x2x1 Enclosure Using LM2596 Adjustable Regulator

    yep :) it was a PITA at times, though, no doubt. The cells actually aren't bad at all, you just have to take the one towards the middle out first, then slide the first one over diagonally and pull it out that way. Same procedure but in reverse for putting them in. The liquid bottle is tough...

    V.V. Top-Fed Mod in a 3x2x1 Enclosure Using LM2596 Adjustable Regulator

    Well, it is done and it is a success! Doesn't look extremely pretty but boy does it work! This is a 3x2x1 project box from radio shack with 2 14500s in series wired up to a vv regulator with space for a top-fed juicer setup. Let me know what you guys think and if you'd like to make one and...

    First attempt at a mod

    Calypso, this is an extremely nice mod. I would be more than willing to purchase one if/when you decide to make them for sale. Keep up the awesome work!

    The Best $3 Tank Mod You'll See Today

    Also, what is stopping liquid from running out of the mouthpiece and tube? I'm thinking now the actual atty coil might be there at the top, and then when you screw the top back on, the mouthpiece would fit around the coil part. Am I on the right track?

    The Best $3 Tank Mod You'll See Today

    I think that pic gives me a little better of an idea. So I would get a clearomizer, and then I'd have to take it apart, correct? It seems like everything except the clear tube would be kept and intact, and then put into the bottle with the gasket in the bottom, right? I'm still not clear on...

    The Best $3 Tank Mod You'll See Today

    I'm hoping this post wasn't taken the wrong way (i.e. complaining), and maybe I'm just not seeing how it works due to the fact that I've never used a clearomizer. Parallex2, is there any way you could post a picture of the tank but disassembled into the individual parts in such a way that could...

    The Best $3 Tank Mod You'll See Today

    Is it just me, or is anyone else completely lost on how to make this? If someone posted a proper tutorial, I'm sure many here on the forum would be extremely grateful. It's hard to just look at the end product and brief discussion and really get the feel for how to do this.

    How to: Build the Puck

    So I've done some testing on my various mods... Changed the connector I was using on the puck. Doesn't seem to make much of a difference at all. Still getting around 3.4v under load while having 5.1v without load. I've got the AAA rechargeables in the charger right now and will see if that...
